The extension of Formula 1's broadcasting agreement with Kayo Sports has sparked frustration among Australian fans, who took to social media to voice their displeasure. Many expressed a preference for Apple TV, which holds F1 rights in the United States, while others criticized the service's pricing structure, with basic plans starting at $29.99 monthly and premium options at $45.99.
The Australian Grand Prix will continue to be broadcast for free by Network 10, but Kayo Sports added an F1TV commentary option after some fans accused the main Sky Sports UK feed of showing bias toward British driver Lando Norris over teammate Oscar Piastri. Despite the criticism, both parties confirmed the partnership would continue into 2027 and beyond.
